Evaluating Long-Term Outcomes Among Hispanic Kidney Transplant Recipients

Hispanics, the largest ethnic minority group in the United States, experience faster progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to kidney failure compared with non-Hispanic White individuals (NHW). Hispanic individuals are less likely to be referred for transplant evaluation, to be listed for transplantation, and to receive a transplant. This study compared kidney transplant outcomes between Hispanic individuals and NHW individuals to gain insights into these health disparities.
